Welcome once again to Calgary Sports Car Clubs Performance Stage Rally.
As in previous years the event is a qualifying round for all the major
local Championships. So please don’t delay in sending your entry
as there are only 30 entries available.
 Following
the success of last year’s rally Cochrane Image Auto Body has again
agreed to sponsor this year’s rally, which will be held on Saturday
and Sunday, May 25/26, 2013.
Registration and Tech will take place at our sponsors facilities located
in Cochrane.
Entries will be processed strictly on a “First Come – First
Served” basis. Only those entries, received by post, with the correct
entry fee will be processed. Acknowledgements, with status of entry,
will be sent out following confirmation of entry fee monies being received
by Calgary Sports Car Club. So we would emphasize again the importance
of getting your entry in sooner rather than later.
We look forward to seeing friends old and new.
The Organising Team
Starting in the picturesque town of Cochrane, the 2013 Cochrane Winter
Rally will kick off Round 1 of the Western Canadian Rally Championship.

1st Overall 2012 - Mitsubishi EVO 9 |
The rally will be run in the forestry and oil roads in the familiar
Fallen Timber forestry area. The timing of the rally provides road conditions
that will be tricky and unpredictable. Gravel, snow, and lots of ice
are virtually guaranteed.

2nd Overall 2012 - Subaru Impreza |
Reconnaissance or 'Recce', gives teams a chance to see the roads on
the day before the event and make their own description of the stage.
The ability to mark hazards and make a knowledgeable tire choice makes
the event faster and safer for all participants.
With the level of interest in Rallying continuing to grow, the 2013
Cochrane Winter Rally is expecting a large and competitive field at
this years event.
Alex Kozlov / Matt Vincent
3rd Overall 2012 - Subaru Impreza STI |
The 2013 Western Canada Rally Championship consists of the Cochrane
Winter Rally, The Rocky Mountain Rally, Pacific Forest Rally, Kananaskis
Rally and the Big White Rally.

Cochrane Image Auto Body Winter Rally - May 26, 2013
After several long conversations, the organising team have decided
to postpone the rally which was scheduled to run over the weekend
of 9/10th March 2013 until later in the year.
The reason for this has been the on-going discussions around
the insurance claim for the radio blocker, whose vehicle was damaged
at the Kananaskis Rally last year.
On the positive side, the organisers have made a few changes
to the rally, these are;
- A new Stage of approximately 7kms.
- A new finish venue located between Cochrane and Calgary.
The new date for the Cochrane Rally will be the weekend of 25/26th
May 2013.
We realise that the new date is the scheduled date for the Kananaskis
Rally, and we will look at trying to slot that rally in later
in the year. However this may prove to be tough with Rocky Mountain
Rally in early November and other National and Regional Rallies
running in the later half of the year.

Volunteer Information
One of the best ways to get into rallying and learn how and
what to do is to volunteer to help out at an event.
There are many positions available, most not requiring any special
knowledge (we'll teach you anyway). From the registration table
to timing controls and spectator control.
Volunteers are needed:
- To help with competitor registration
- To help with technical inspection of rally cars
- To help with rally equipment for the event -signage, marking
off stage areas, etc.
- To operate time controls - timing cars at stage starts, stage
finishes and into the service parks.
- To secure the roads - ensuring that roads leading onto the
stages are secure. In other words, the "best seats in the house
to see the action"
- To host sponsor and media representatives
- To help with spectator safety - marshals who ensure that spectators
remain in the designated viewing locations and stay safe.
- To monitor service parks for safe practises and to ensure
that spectators are not too close to competitor cars during
service.
Some positions need specialist skills. People with qualifications
as amateur radio operators, emergency medical technicians, and
advanced first aid are critical for event safety and security.
